GRiD Compass 1101

GRiD · 1982

The first clamshell laptop ever made, and one of the most significant computers in the collection of any museum: a magnesium case, a bright electroluminescent display, bubble memory instead of a disc, and a price around eight thousand dollars in 1982. NASA flew them on the Space Shuttle. Extremely rare and extremely important.
